SUMMARY: Bradshaw direct jacked 386 linear feet of 54" reinforced concrete pipe via conventional TBM in two (2) drives, as part of the 11th Street Bridge project in Washington, DC. One drive was minded under I-295, while the other was under an SME wall for the new bridge. Ground conditions were primarily soft, wet silt, sand & clay; however, obstacles such as a large layer of river gravel and buried... Complete Project Profile

SUMMARY: Bradshaw Construction installed 147 linear feet of 72 inch reinforced concrete pipe for a storm water system needing improvements. This was accomplished by direct jacking in a single pass under a CSX Transportation Railroad at a depth of 10 feet below the existing grade. Bradshaw worked closely with the CSX Railroad to install dewatering within the right of way, allowing for this type of... Complete Project Profile

SUMMARY: Bradshaw Construction installed twin tunnels of 42" RCP storm sewer 60' each under a railroad in Baltimore, MD. There were several challenges and delays on the project. All of which stemmed from conflicting permits and access issues. When the methodology of using a TBM for pipe-jacking 42" RCP was finally approved by all parties it was under the allowance that all tunneling work would take... Complete Project Profile

SUMMARY: The project for the College of William and Mary involved the construction of twin 600' by 60" diameter runs. 48" ID RCP was jacked behind a 60" diameter Akkerman TBM. Ground conditions encountered on the job included clay with some wet sand layers. The tunnels were used for steam and chilled water lines. Complete Project Profile
